This timeframe is indicative and mainly depends on the availability of parts currently in stock in our workshop. Delivery can be faster, as reducing the delay between order confirmation and shipping remains one of our main priorities. We continuously work to keep the necessary parts available in order to optimize production and assembly.
Take the time to discover the instrument in your own environment with our 30-day return policy. This approach allows you to experience the feel, balance, resonance, and response of the instrument without pressure or compromise. For more information, please refer to our FAQ or home trial section.
Each instrument is assembled, adjusted, and carefully inspected in our workshop before shipping. Action, intonation, neck adjustment, electronics, hardware, and finishing details are individually checked on every model. Every instrument leaves the workshop in optimal playing condition and ready for immediate use.

Playability comes first.
The Player neck features a distinctive 5+1 headstock design, creating a modern and recognisable silhouette. Built entirely from roasted maple for both the neck and fingerboard, it offers strong stability and a precise, articulate response. The 9.5″ radius creates a comfortable balance between chord playing and lead work, supporting smooth bends and controlled action. The high-gloss finish brings a smooth, premium feel and supports long-term durability. Combined with a well-known 25.5″ scale length, it brings clarity and definition across the fretboard. Locking tuners allow quick and efficient string changes while maintaining solid tuning stability. In partnership with Elixir Strings, all our models are equipped with OPTIWEB .010-.046 strings, selected for their crisp tone, natural feel, and extended lifespan.
The power of two P-90.
Two Steelyjam P-90 pickups shape a raw and expressive tonal identity, sitting between the clarity of single-coils and the density of humbuckers. The winding has been developed to highlight midrange presence without losing definition, keeping the attack sharp and dynamic. Output levels are calibrated to keep both positions usable, with no abrupt change when switching. A three-position switch, combined with master volume and tone controls, gives the guitar everything it needs. Simple and effective. Each wiring is based on our original and universal PCB, enabling clean assembly and quick component changes without soldering.
A partnership founded on innovation.
The Schaller 3D-6 bridge reflects German engineering at its finest. Designed for precision and versatility, it offers full 3-dimensional adjustment, allowing accurate control over string height, intonation, and spacing to match any playing style. Its Pure Sound brass roller saddles ensure smooth string movement, excellent tuning stability, and optimal vibration transfer. This advanced level of adjustability enables a highly refined setup, delivering consistent feel and accuracy across the entire fretboard. Built for reliability and long-term performance, it provides a solid foundation for both tone and playability.
The advantages of an aluminium body.
The one-piece aluminium body defines the foundation of Steelyjam instruments. It combines precision manufacturing with long-term reliability, using advanced CNC machining and laser cutting to create a rigid, stable welded structure. Aluminium delivers a clear and balanced tonal response, with direct vibration transfer across the entire body. Its conductive properties also help reduce electromagnetic interference, resulting in a clean and noiseless signal. Like wood, it can be endlessly customised using techniques such as anodising, painting, surface treatment, or laser engraving. Resistant to temperature and humidity variations, it maintains its structural integrity over time.
